It depends. Please be more specific as to how you are accessing the database. What api are you using? OCI, JDBC, sqlJ, odbc, ado,oledb, oo40, smoke signals?

On a remote machine you will need the Oracle client installed (sqlnet) and then the program uses some sort of api to talk to sqlnet which talks to Oracle.
